罗德岛设计学院对作品集的要求：
Portfolio
Your portfolio should consist of 12 to 20 examples of any type of two- or three dimensional work you have completed recently. We suggest that the work reflect your ideas, interests, experience and abilities in the arts to date. It may be in any media, may be finished or in sketch form, and may be the result of an assigned class project or a self-directed exploration. We strongly suggest that as part of this visual presentation you also reproduce and submit 2-3 pages from your journal or sketchbook to indicate your process of research, thinking or investigation.
此处对作品数量做了要求，内容要反映学生的想法、兴趣、经历和艺术创新能力，形式上并不做要求。
Your portfolio must be reproduced and may be submitted using Slideroom, an online portfolio submission service; as digital image files on a CD or DVD; or as unmounted digital or photographic prints (no larger than 8.5“ x 11” or 21.5cm x 28cm each)。 Detailed instructions for using Slideroom are available on the site (risd.slideroom.com)。 Slideroom charges $10 for using this submission option.
可以用slideroom上传作品，或者制成光盘，或者印刷成册。
If you choose to send your portfolio directly to RISD on a CD/DVD, each image should be submitted as a separate file in .jpg format. Individual files should not exceed 3MB. Do not combine images in a prepared presentation or slideshow of any type (e.g., PowerPoint or Keynote)。 Please be sure to include a printed thumbnail page showing all the images submitted digitally. Time-based work or performance pieces may be submitted as QuickTime or .mpg files on a CD or DVD.
如用光盘提交的话每个文件不超过3M，并且要求不能做成展示ppt。
Whichever format you select, include a work description sheet. Number the examples you are submitting and on your description page list the corresponding number, medium, size, date of completion and title for each work. It is very important that your full name and address be clearly noted on each CD, DVD, print, description and thumbnail page submitted. (摘自该校官网)
无论选择以哪种形式提交作品，都需附作品描述，要将描述与作品编号对应。
两份写作
选择一位以前或者现在一位你感兴趣的艺术家、设计师，并且告诉我们如果你和他相处一天，你会做些什么?你想学到什么?你会问她/他什么样的问题?
选择以下5个主题：
一些学生有一些特殊的背景和故事，如果学生认为缺了这些内容，感觉申请不完整，那么就写出你的故事。
在一场事故中或某个时间段，经历了失败，它是怎样影响你的，你有学到了什么?
当你被一些信念或想法挑战时，什么促进你行动?再来一次，你还会做同样的决定吗?
描述一个你认为非常完美的地方，你将会在哪做什么?对你又有什么意义?
在你所处文化、家庭、社区的背景下，描述一个能编制自己从孩子过渡到大人的事件或者成就。
推荐信
虽然不做硬性要求，但是建议有一篇推荐信，三篇也可。
